Hollywood Zen. Honors the park Zenny won so many faces at and the fact that her parents are A-listers. Or, Applauze, maybe Zen D’Oro.

Look at those long legs! They should make for long strides on the track just like Mom did &, no doubt, she’ll be as tall as Mom. Absolutely precious! Can’t wait to see her grow up. You did good, Zenny! Thank you Lane’s End for the wonderful photos.

I’m not very up on such things, but would she be considered a “bay”?
Virginia Mach Hagler
Cheryl, If she stays this color, she will be a blood bay (reddish brown coat). Zenny’s color is called dark bay. A bay is a solid brown horse with black tail and mane. The color of the coat can be any brown from red-brown to such a dark brown it is almost black. But the tail and mane are always black. There are dark reddish brown, almost brown, liver chestnuts, but their tails and manes are not black. Chestnuts have tails and manes the same color as the coat or lighter. In the West, chestnuts are often called sorrels. Chestnuts sometimes “grey out” and gradually turn grey which lightens to almost white with increasing age. I don’t think bays ever do this. Sometimes grey horses are born black, but I don’t think they are ever bay or brownish with black tail and mane.

Thanks Virginia. I wasn’t sure. Also, I’m glad to have the info on chestnut coloring.

Thank-you!
Faithful Zenyatta Supporter
Love, love, love these two, tears of joy and so happy for Zenny that she finally gets to enjoy another baby girl. Thanks so much Team Z! Beautiful chestnut color with dark mane and tail.
Max
Chestnuts by definition never have dark tails and manes. Their manes and tails are always a shade of chestnut. This filly is a bay like her parents and a beautiful bay too. Her coat is just a lighter bay than theirs at the moment. She could stay this way or her coat could darken. Time will tell.
Dee Lange
Congratulations to everyone involved with bringing this beauty into the world. Great pictures! Thank you for updating us, Zenny has so many hundreds of fans.

Oh man! What a way to start my Friday. These photos are too adorable for words. I’m going to spend time going back and forth looking at these throughout the day. THANK YOU to everyone there who keeps us informed of Zenyatta’s goings-on. I adore these photos. Looks like mama and baby are doing great. Not much gonna keep Big Mama Z from grazing, but she’s still keeping a close eye on her little girl. Have a wonderful weekend, Lane’s End. My name for this young lady would be Mom’z lil princess.
